Abstract
The ability to electrically probe the spin properties of solid state systems underlies a wide variety of emerging technologies. Here, we demonstrate the electrical readout of the nuclear spin states of phosphorus donors in silicon in the coherent regime with modified Hahn echo sequences. We find that while the nuclear spins have electrically detected phase coherence times exceeding 2 ms, they are nonetheless limited by the artificially shortened lifetime of the probing donor electron.
